    @aaronpk that's weird, I've never had that happen with my @Dropbox maybe you have background process or something?
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak Are you *sure*? Because I wouldn't have known except that I went looking for one thing in particular and it was gone!

    @aaronpk Scary! Can you recover them? I upgraded my @dropbox account for my primary cloud doc storage, but need reliability.
    Aaron Parecki
    @hatsharpener @Dropbox My problem is that I don't know all the files that have been deleted until I go look for one and it's not there.

    Aaron Parecki
    @hatsharpener @Dropbox Yes, they show up on the site if you click "show deleted files" and can be restored.

    In case you missed it earlier - Curiosity cost $2.5B. Americans spend $7B on potato chips annually. To say we can't afford this is nonsense.
    Aaron Parecki
    @twaddington @NickInNC Alright everybody stop buying potato chips for a year and let's go fund NASA ourselves!

    @aaronpk I'm currently rewriting my site and I want to release most of it. Got no idea about licences, what would you recommend?
    Aaron Parecki
    @BarnabyWalters MIT or BSD are the most permissive licenses for code.

    @caseorganic @aaronpk I woke up with that Sesame St. song stuck in my head... "ABC-DEF-GHJ..." thanks ;)
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak now you got it stuck in my head! Thanks a lot...

    @aaronpk @BarnabyWalters more focused on protocols and less on applications- protocols don't make sense to users- apps do!
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak @BarnabyWalters That's a good point, and is also the reason Wordpress has worked so well for the #IndieWeb.

    @aaronpk @BarnabyWalters twitter clients, and data archiving startups were (and you may feel this is reaching) were in essence building the
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak @BarnabyWalters but Twitter was never built on an existing distributed protocol. The closest analogy would be RSS/Atom feeds

    @BarnabyWalters @aaronpk the reason I can offer is no more than: before github, git was far from being the most popular version control sys
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak @BarnabyWalters I guess I don't see the app•net :: git analogy, it seems like they are just making a proprietary service.

  • Brennan Novak https://twitter.com/brennannovak   •   Jul 29
    @aaronpk the difference with what @daltonc is building is- what Github is to Git, where as StatusNet is like Git (a rad open source app)
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak I guess I don't see the decentralization/federation in http://t.co/FR9elbbP's proposal.

    @ablaze @daltonc Sounds like it's starting in response to Twitter's TOS changes, like how Diaspora was started after FB's privacy issues.

  • Brennan Novak https://twitter.com/brennannovak   •   Jul 29
    @aaronpk yes, it is a rad project by @daltonc you should donate as well, as it may be something instrumental in the #IndieWeb taking off!
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak @ablaze @daltonc Why not build off of StatusNet? Seems like the problem has largely been solved by them already.

    @caseorganic you should donate to https://join.app.net
    Aaron Parecki
    @brennannovak I don't want to leave Twitter unless it's to a decentralized solution. Guess I don't see the benefit of app•net that way

    @brennannovak Do you know those guys? Are they trying to build a new twitter or something?

    @aaronpk I now have an immense heap of points. Do you happen to have some advice for a good kml to svg converter? http://t.co/4ncxzkwq
    Aaron Parecki
    @paulswagerman That's awesome! I don't know of a good kml->svg converter, but chances are you can find one if you Google it.

    @pmark There should be an app for that.

    @aaronpk Wow. True. Even better? Somebody graduating high school last month will see 2100. 105yo? There's at least one out there.

    @billder sometimes I wish I was born in 1999 so I'd have a chance to live during THREE centuries!!

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
